Renewables: Hydro Electric Schemes

 

Stag Infrastructure specialises in providing the essential civil construction and groundworks required for hydro electric schemes across the Scottish landscape. These projects harness the power of flowing water, often utilising a run-of-river principle, which involves diverting water to a powerhouse to generate clean, long-term electricity before returning it to the natural watercourse.

We handle the crucial infrastructure elements that make these schemes viable, ensuring development aligns with environmental good practice and regulatory requirements:

• Civil Works: Precision excavation, concrete works, and pipe laying (penstock) for all major components, including the intake structures, weir, and powerhouse foundations.
• Access: Construction of new or upgraded access tracks and site roads necessary for transporting heavy equipment and materials to often remote sites.
